Live

Join the Conversation.

Live is a real-time, interactive online classroom that brings Harvard Business School’s famed case method to life in a digital environment.

Participants can connect from a computer anywhere in the world and engage with faculty members and peers just like they would in a Harvard Business School classroom. Faculty teach from a state-of-the-art studio located in Boston-based public broadcaster WGBH, and walk learners through real decisions made by industry-leading companies and ask them to discuss and debate in real-time how they would approach a particular business challenge.

In the studio, up to 60 participants are displayed on individual screens simultaneously. Sessions are expertly produced using still and roaming cameras—creating the perspective for participants of being in a real classroom, seeing both the faculty members and their peers.

Although there is a set time to log in for Live programs, you can engage in the program while at work, on campus, or at home, making it a flexible option for students, working professionals, and senior leaders.

Out of all the intuitive teaching techniques at HBS Online, the Live experience was the most memorable of them all. To get a chance to interact with the Harvard faculty live was a dream come true.

This is the closest you come to experiencing a Harvard Business School classroom without actually being there. Participants can interact with each other while being part of the case discussions with faculty.

"This was absolutely the quality I would expect from an HBS Online experience. I loved everything about it. The technology was amazing. I loved the different camera angles and the option to raise your hand."
